    Cable tester or qualifier for IP cams?

    Something I discovered in relation to the comment above: "And that the cables aren't in close proximity to sources of electrical noise such as fluorescent lighting wiring or mains wiring. " I've always adhered to this principle, hey, it's on the test. Last year we had a big remodel on our...

    Recommendation for an email provider for sending BI Alerts

    Followup: I created a new gmail account and applied the "weakened" security" setting and it works great. thanks The video author was correct in his prediction. Google changed all their setting screens but I was persistent and found where they put the security setting. Now only if Blue Iris...

    Recommendation for an email provider for sending BI Alerts

    I've been using AT&T email for probably many years to send my BI alerts (My email domain was sbcglobal to give you an idea how long I had it). Now AT&T first flagged me as a spammer, then it says I had too many bad logins. Their user support fixed it for about 5 minutes and it won't work...

    Experience with Floodlight wireless IP Camera

    I am hoping someone has a positive experience with using a Floodlight wireless IP Camera. (I cannot string a cable to the needed location). Obviously it needs to be BI compatible. There is a Dahua but it won't be available for months...

    Recommend POE camera that mounts to pole

    OK, I'll bite. Who sells a pole mount bracket for an IP Camera? Is this specific to a camera brand?

    Recommend POE camera that mounts to pole

    I have my weather station mounted on a steel pole and want to attach a POE camera to the same pole. I have mounted a POE camera to a wooden board and attached that board with 2 u-bolts to the steel pole. It does not take long for the wood to get all beat up by the sun, wind and rain. I don't...

    Camera Profile stuck on Profile 3

    That was it. The BI schedule had the checkbox "enable" checked. I guess I don't understand the ramifications of that checkbox. thanks

    Camera Profile stuck on Profile 3

    First, I had renamed Profile #3 in the settings. Now every camera has profile #3 (under trigger, profile). No matter what I change the camera profile to, close the camera settings and reopen the camera settings, BI has reset the camera to #3 Profile. I have no idea what I changed that could...

    IP Cam recommendation for extremely low lux without IR

    I have an observatory that takes images in the in the infrared (Hydrogen alpha band) and I can run it from my house. I would like to remotely monitor the telescope to make sure no cables are getting tangled. If I turn on the LEDs, my exposure is ruined. Currently I used a camera that does...

    Blue Skying for ideas

    The Reolink prices seduced me. When they work they are great. I will definitely order a coupled of the Dahua or HikVisiions. Right now with 16 cameras running at 10 fps, my CPU is a t 52% and RAM at 5.71 GB so I don't believe it is a congestion issue. I keep hoping for a magic bullet because...
